Haha, except mine is Rama like the spaceship :)

I named my new external drive "Rama". Not sure how far I can take that, though.

This is what I have been saying since 2012. Angular was created by java developers for java developers. It's is an abomination to the frontend.

I've always been very frustrated with .co domains, since they are so close to .com and often get confused with one another. How does .CO handle this?

I love wit.ai. Really hope Facebook isn't just blowing smoke about keeping them open.

Try going through a few rounds of IVF in a state that doesn't require insurance companies to cover it. Not exactly the greatest boost to your net worth, monetarily-speaking :) The truth is, life is messy. Everybody has things come up.

Gee, didn't see that coming :/ Hopefully wikidata will be able to serve the community well.

Battery is definitely a concern, though it probably doesn't matter since it will be plugged up. The screen dimming might be a concern for me as well. Honestly though, now that I think about it, I've never been worried about that w

I know this is nit-picky, but Duet is not "the first app that allows you to use your iDevice as an extra display". It's not even the second. There's an opportunity here for better copy to differentiate themselves. Also,

Apparently reliably streaming video is harder than rocket science.

Hah, I just read your essay a couple of days ago!

I mean, it's cool tech, a pretty site, etc, but it's still encouraging you to break the law. And no HN, I'm not getting dragged into another debate about that :)

I've been working on a personal webapp using cmusphinx for trigger-word detection, google for the rest of the voice recognition, wit.ai for the NLP, and google again for the voice output. Works pretty well, but would probably give most

This issue was a huge problem for me for a few years. For Populr ( https://populr.me ), we created an entire theming system for our users. That, of course, means users could write css that would override our interface, since page

i consider myself a fairly smart and technical human being, but a good photo storage solution is something I still haven't figured out. I want all my photos on an external drive that is also backed up to backblaze. But I also want that

For the people who say group messaging is fine in email: are you all masochists? Seriously, if I have one more 45-email thread between 3 different people, I'm going to smack somebody. There is a time and place for email, but group chat

I don't know about linux support, but they have native apps. This is much better than having an extra tab open all the time. As for your other concerns, you have listed a bunch of technologies that "already [do] that." Sure,

Really impressed with this. I'm glad HP is trying something innovative in the desktop market. As a father of a young girl, I'm really interested in something like this. Could be especially great for her.

I did nearly the same several years ago. Went a few days with little to no sleep, drank a bunch of huge energy drinks, and ended up in the hospital with tachycardia. No lasting damage, but I've definitely been more careful ever since.

We've been working in the same space as you for a while with http://populr.me . Great to see others banging the drum of one-off content!

Right, I meant catastrophic for the reactor. Definitely not worried about blowing up the country. Probably shouldn't have typed that phrase. NSA is probably all over me now.

So, they've come up with a way to make a fusor that produces more energy than it consumes? Also, I'd be interested in knowing what kind of scram mechanism they develop. If the superconductors were to fail, the expansion of the pla

The family sacrifice should not be discounted in any way. Specifically, being away from her children during the week could have an impact on her family for a long time. Probably less so with her three year-old daughter, but there will be an

Financial stability is always an issue for founders. Any founder that has an alternative source of income, a large reserve of liquid cash, or a small living expense (NOT a family to feed), is going to have more flexibility.

Hmm, first time I tried it, OneTab closed all my tabs up into a list, just like advertised. But when I clicked "restore all", it only restored one of my tabs and lost the rest.

Everything is wrong with AngularJS. It's a horrible framework that should be banished to the hell from which it came. It makes absolutely everything more complicated and obscure that necessary. I can't stand it.

I got a Paperwhite about 3 weeks ago. I've kept it in the packaging, anticipating a new release was coming. I was not anticipating such a huge bump in price though. Guess I'm keeping the Paperwhite.

Ugh, I need to set up an extension to automatically rewrite all Techcrunch urls.
